This is my goal, to make it to Supernova Elite in 2012 playing Heads Up Sit&Go's (mostly Hyper's).

I will try to maintain a healthy lifestyle and a more or less reasonable "work" schedule.

I will disregard anything that happened this year so far, and have my official "Start" date as today, March 04.

Will try to review every session, hopefully, more then anything else, it helps me play better.

Posting this update just to cool off...

I ran into a very rough start, most of this session I 4-tabled a reg called "Kyle Aiken". He has some very very big leaks, I am always surprised how players like him survive on those stakes, I guess it mush be very strict game selection.

Well he ran very good vs me to start off, just having me raped for 40 games or so, making 8 buy-inns, which I consider to be a very big spike (I always talk redline, I disregard greenline completely). Very very horrible card distribution for me...

After that I made ~5 buy-inns back and he quit me. I was very pissed when he did, this is why I decided to cool off and post an update. I know nobody really cares, but posting whiny things like this cools me down, which serves the purpose.

I think I didn't make any major mistakes overall during this session, except for this one:

Its a very easy fold. I was too agitated to make it.
Holla!

Hand Histories and Comments:

Overall so far today I am running pretty bad in distribution, the first 170 games were just horrible, I played "Kyl3 Aik3n" first, running like crap against him. Then I played some decent reg's and some fishes, running like crap against them. And then the first 20 games against "em0tionx" I ran, well, you guessed it, like crap... again.

Anyways, long story short, most of the games from today are from a 4-tabling match against a reg named "em0ionx" (I 1337 reg's name on purpose now).

We have a history - when I only started playing $200's, he, as every other reg, sat me a few times. Its my SharkScope that makes everyone take a shot at me. The decent reg's usually quit after a few games, this young fellow was a special case tho .

Basically for the first 50 games, he snapped out a distribution run so good, that I will call it Top 2 worst (on my side) this year*. He was not a good player. I would estimate that I can make 6-10% vs him, if not more, unless he makes some very drastic adjustments.

Then he quit me, and wrote in the HU SnG forum here on 2p2 about how much I suck, how I'm a dream fish that will give him endless 4-tabling action etc. It kinda made me smile, I was just waiting for an opportunity to play him again.

And today I did. We 4-tabled for a very long time, and overall I raped him pretty good. After 224 total games I made 6.7% EV ROI (overall today is break even, mostly due to the death run at the start vs "Kyl3 Aik3n" and other regs+fishes). At the beginning of the match "em0tionx" offered me a HU4rollz for $10k, which I accepted and told him to make it official and post on 2p2. I even considered quitting him at that point so he stays under the illusion he has a chance. But I got greedy and at the end he quit me w/o saying a word, its unlikely he will follow trough with the challenge.

I have now received one payment from my EV insurance guy**. And I was actually due to receive another one in the middle of the session today, but then it got better. I so want to stop running like this. I would be the happiest man alive it if ever gets to the point where I have to finally ship him something.

Anyways, I'm to tired, no hands in this update, I'ma go eat and maybe play a dozen or two more games, and then I think I might be done for the day.

I woke up at 2 am today and want to try to make it till 8-9pm before I go to sleep, so my schedule normalizes starting tomorrow.

*About distribution runs, over all, the first ~170 games today were the worst run this year so far. Nice way to start off the challenge. Get the worst distribution run right off the start . Will I top that tomorrow? I ****ing hope not.....

**Yeah I get All-In EV neutralising insurance. I decided to get it after being ~145 buy-inns below EV in HU SnG's this year. Its a slightly -EV deal for me, but I'm still happy with it as it gives me peace of mind. If you want to read more about the concept, click here
Peace!

Why exactly does you sharkscope graph look so bad?

Over $100k below EV in $5k's. Over $50k below EV in all other forms of grinding.

Most of it is from "back in the day", when I still played cash.

~$27k below EV in HU SnG's is the recent "smoother" line on that graph.

That is actually a graph of a pretty decent winning player .

I've been ~$550k below EV in all forms of gambling in the last 3 years. I'm that person who wins the lottery backwards.

I'm still hoping to turn it around, it's not to late.

Hand Histories and Comments:

I'm very tired to write a lot of comments. Will keep it short.

Session stars, ~115 games, "Kyl3 Aik3n" ****ed me up, didn't even give me a chance. I lost $3k in EV to him. Biggest swong on $200's s far. Ran bad in distribution but also tilted a bit. Might not sit him again actually. Or maybe take another stab later, I still feel I can maybe turn it around vs him.

That pissed me off so much I even smoked a few cigarettes.

Then I chilled and just grinded like a slave to get back to EV even. **** I'm not even beating $200's apparently, just grinding the rakeback. Which Is not to bad I guess, but gotta work on making some ROI... Maybe not sitting good regs would be a good start. The "slave" part of the session was me taking open lobbies, so about 3/4 random regs of different skill levels, and 1/4 some weaker players. Results are better obv. I gotta start just doing that...

Other news, the $10k HU4rollz vs "em0tionx" is likely to happen. I am a bit paranoid tbh, maybe I just ran amazing in distribution against him to make that EV and in reality he is better after all. I did think I can beat "Kyl3 Aik3n" yesterday and today I was proven very wrong... Oh well, we'll have to play it out and hope for the best.


Holla!
